Shane Sdao will get the start for the Aggies, who will be happy to have star transfer Chris Hacopian back in the lineup after missing the last six games with a lower back injury.

The first pitch was originally scheduled for 7:00, but will likely be pushed back to around 7:30 after the late finish to the UCLA-Tennessee that preceded.
